I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Popcorn

Popcorn to go with a movie comes in a variety of flavors, and even choosing one is part of the fun.

Since watching the kernels pop energetically is a highlight, it’s recommended to showcase the cooking process when selling, adding an element of attraction.

While salt and caramel are classics, trying out new seasonings could really liven things up.

You could also prepare a selection of spices and let customers season their popcorn themselves.

Because the base is simple, there’s plenty of room for creativity, which helps enhance the overall enjoyment of the event.
